Air pollutants induce cellular hypoxia, slowed skin metabolism and harmful chemical reactions: the complexion becomes dull, the skin dries out, skin aging begins prematurely. It is therefore necessary to minimize direct contact between skin and pollutants and to rid the skin of these toxic particles.

Several in-vivo approaches are possible:

  • Assess the shield action of products, assess the antioxidant power or quantify the heavy metals on the skin
  • Objectivate the cleaning or depolluting power of products through image analysis or by following the acceleration of stratum renewal
  • Track transcutaneous oxygenation.
